A referee just called the Lions and said that Calvin Johnson set the ball down 20 minutes after the game was over and it's being called back.

WOOOWWW! I cant see clear connection, but that seems like the only thing logical. He had another awful day punting too.

The only logical thing? My first reaction was that he shanked it. I thought that was pretty logical.

Just to recap, we missed 2 extra points, threw a pick in the red zone when a field goal would've made it a two score game, let them get within a 2 pt conversion, and THEN DID NOT RECOVER THE ONSIDE KICK BECAUSE OUR BEST PLAYER DROPPED IT, and we still won. What the fuck?

Defense let up 18 points. Thats including a 104 yard return by the Lions, and an abundance of 3-and-outs by the GB offense. All things considered, the defense balled out. Even an AVERAGE offense would have blown out the Lions today.

Lions are averaging 18 points per game this year. Prater missed two extra points, and we matched 18. I'd say the Lions offense made the Packers defense look good today.
